"We still see a pressing need for housing and support of homeless women and children," said Carla Cooper, project manager at Leapley Construction Group LLC and a CREW member.

The new project is still in the working stages, but the organization is hoping the project could be completed by 2007.Cooper said she would like to see work get under way quickly because CREW's national convention will be held in Atlanta in 2006 and she would like to showcase the organization's efforts.

The idea to work on this latest project came after CREW took a look back at the success of its 1997 redevelopment project at Delowe Village.

"We were very happy with the success, and a year and a half ago, CREW formed a committee to decide what type of project was needed," Cooper said.

The next two years were spent getting Delowe Village up and running.
